a .17hmr is to small, i would go with a .204. A couple weeks ago i shot a coyote at 267 yards and it dropped in its tracks. I would say if your looking for a good coyote gun then the .204 would be a wise choice.
I don't know much about the .17 so I can't really comment on it, but I do know the damage the .204 does on Coyotes, I have had the Savage .204 for 3 weeks and dropped 2 and missed one. I couldn't even take pictures of the one because it wasn't a pretty site!
